To convert a Spearman rank correlation coefficient to a p-value, one can use statistical software like SAS or Stata, which provide this output directly. For manual conversion, the correlation coefficient can be compared against critical values from a Spearman rank correlation table based on sample size. Additionally, the p-value can be derived using the appropriate statistical distribution for the test. Understanding the relationship between the correlation coefficient and the significance level is crucial for accurate interpretation. Seeking guidance from statistical resources or literature may also provide further insights into this conversion process.

I am trying to convert the spearman rank test correlation coefficient to a p-value but I haven't been able to find anything online as to how to go about this. I'm not looking for a calculator, I really would like to know how to convert from this correlation coefficient to a p-value. Any help would be appreciated.

Standard statistical software (e.g. SAS and probably Stata) output that value.
 

Thread 'Two interesting number theory tricks'

First trick I learned this one a long time ago and have used it to entertain and amuse young kids. Ask your friend to write down a three-digit number without showing it to you. Then ask him or her to rearrange the digits to form a new three-digit number. After that, write whichever is the larger number above the other number, and then subtract the smaller from the larger, making sure that you don't see any of the numbers. Then ask the young "victim" to tell you any two of the digits of the...
